4-6 Communicating via the Interface Module
When you enter 3A as the port number, an Ethernet instruction entry
screen appears. In addition to the information you entered previously
this screen includes a field for entering the Host/Internet (IP) address.
Enter the IP address of the destination processor here.
Communicating with
ControlLogix Devices The Ethernet interface module, series A, revision E and later, with a
PLC-5 processor can communicate over Ethernet with ControlLogix
devices or through a ControlLogix Ethernet (1756-ENET) module to
other PLC-5 processors. The following diagram shows an Ethernet
PLC-5 processor (or PLC-5 processor with a 1785-ENET sidecar
module) and the other PLC and SLC processors it can communicate
with using a multihop MSG instruction.
This Parameter: Specifies:
IP Address The MSG instruction’s destination node.
• If the destination is a PLC-5/20E, -5/40E, -5/80E, or another
1785-ENET-equipped PLC-5 processor, the destination must be a full IP
address
• If the destination is an INTERCHANGE client program, type “CLIENT” in the
Destination Node field.
Important: You must set the port number to 3A in order to access this function.
